If you're looking for a taste of Italy, this place is definitely worth a visit. I'm glad I finally…read morestopped by to try their food, and it did not disappoint. For an appetizer, I ordered the oven roasted octopus, and I highly recommend it. The marinade really brought out the flavor of the octopus, and I was impressed by how tender it was. Octopus can easily become rubbery if not prepared properly, but the texture here was soft and perfectly cooked. For my main course, I had the lobster ravioli. While the sauce was rich, creamy, and delicious, I was a bit disappointed that there weren't any noticeable chunks of lobster in the filling. We also ordered the Schaumburg pizza. I loved that all of their pizzas are cooked in a stone oven. I'm usually not a big fan of crust, but this was an exception. The flavors were well balanced, not overly sweet from the barbecue sauce, with just the right amount of savory flavor from the bacon. Everything worked together beautifully. Overall, the entire dining experience was excellent. From the food to the atmosphere, it was a very enjoyable meal. I can't wait to come back and explore more of the menu.

I want to give 3 stars but can't. I may be in the wrong here but it's my preference I guess…read more Heard about this pizza spot thru family. I got basically a buffalo chicken and a pepperoni pizza. Now they give what seems to be authentic Italian ingredients. I ordered thru Uber. Wish I could come and sit but I work nights. So I got this to enjoy through my work day. The toppings on the pizzas were everything you would expect. Delicious. Which is why I cannot negate this down to 3 stars. I would recommend this place to everyone. The part that may be my preference or maybe I am right. The crust.... From what I expected it was supposed to be bubbly airy soft crust. Maybe a lil char on the outside. This is not what I had gotten. Now looking thru the photos here I believe I am right. My pizzas felt like a flat breadstick on the rims. And just blatantly flopped over when picking up a slice. There was 0 crisp or crunch in the outter rims. Now again I could be wrong and if this is how it is.... It still gets 4 stars. Ingredients are really good. I will be back. Tip is I would not suggest a lot of toppings as you will just make a big mess picking up a slice.. or eat it with a fork I guess.

Amorino is one of my favorite places for a sweet treat! Their ice cream is incredibly delicious,…read morerich, creamy, and full of flavor. I also highly recommend their Cortado coffee--it has a wonderful, rich taste and pairs perfectly with the gelato. Pistachio is my favorite. They offer different sizes of cones and cups, so there's something for everyone. If you're in the mood for something extra, don't miss their waffles--they're definitely worth trying. Service is great. That have cozy tables, even it is in the mall, still can relax. A perfect spot to enjoy high-quality gelato and great coffee. I'll definitely be coming back!

Though there are plenty of ice cream and frozen yogurt options in malls around America -- Finer…read moregelato shops aren't as common to find. Fortunately Amorino Gelato is one of the better ones that I've run across. The decor here definitely looks much more elegant than the average frozen treat restaurant, with the different gelatos displayed in clean looking cases and premium machines visible making drinks. The menus and signage is all very elegant looking -- though the print on them is small enough it can be difficult to read at times. I really appreciate how the overall restaurant is colorful with food and signage, but is elegant rather than tacky. I do wish there was a bit more seating here, as the business gets rather busy but you may have to compete for somewhere to sit and enjoy your treat. The food unsurprisingly is very good. The gelato flavors are distinct with clean and fairly bold flavors made with good quality ingredients. I also tried the waffle here which was fairly light, crisp, and enjoyable. They are very generous with samples here and I enjoyed every flavor that I tried. Prices are fairly reasonable compared to similar establishments. Overall, worth a visit if you need a sweet treat within Woodfield Mall, particularly if you're looking for gelato in a rose shape in a cone.

Very disappointing experience at Tous Les Jours today…read more The service was extremely rude. The cashier (long black hair) she had an unfriendly attitude from the start--no greeting, no smile, and it felt like she was already irritated. What made it worse was how both the cashier and the owner spoke to me. They raised their voices instead of helping. There was a promotion for 3 bakery items for $5. I accidentally selected 7 items instead of 6, and I clearly told them multiple times that I only wanted 6 and did NOT want the extra item. Instead of fixing a simple mistake calmly, they kept raising their tone at me, which was unnecessary and uncomfortable. As a customer, I expect basic respect and professionalism. This situation could have been handled politely in seconds, but instead it turned into a negative experience. I won't be returning, and I hope management seriously works on customer service.

This place is off to a good start. At its current location it's a little tricky to find. It's…read morelocated at a country club but you don't have to be a member to buy the gelato. Just go down stairs through the entrance marked the Fox and Turtle and you're there. They seem to provide four flavors at a time and have new ones frequently (daily?). At any rate it was delicious and it was nice not to have to go into dangerous downtown Chicago to get good gelato. Highly recommended and looking forward to the growth of this new business.

This next location is a hidden gem in Itasca…read more This small confectionery wonder is located near the front entrance of Fox and Turtle in the Itasca country club. The name is Undici Gelato in Itasca. The owner, whose name is Antonella, spent years with top chefs to create the most perfect Gelato. The flavors change by the week and are all made with fresh fruits and creams. Nothing is artificial. I had been here many months ago as a suggestion from a friend to try their out of this world Gelato. I again was contacted by a subscriber who told me that I needed to try their new shakes made with fresh gelato. They said it will blow my mind with how good it is. I arrived at around 4 o'clock on a Friday. I sat at the bar area of Undici. I spoke with Antonella for quite some time. She is such a wonderful and friendly owner. I could not wait to try this shake that she had in store for me. I opted to get my shake as a malt. The shake consisted of fresh strawberry gelato. When I tell you, I took my first sip and it took everything in me not to chug the entire shake right then and there. You could taste the fresh strawberries. You could also taste the high-quality cream. It was like drinking pure silk. It was so creamy and smooth, one if not the best shake I've ever had in my life. I had to get one to bring home to my wife so she could also try this confectionery masterpiece. The price of this super high-quality shake was only six dollars. It blew my mind. There is another shake and location literally a block away from here that I did a review on. They were charging $14 for a shake that could not hold a candle to the flavour and quality of this shake. As I sat and talked with Antonella, enjoying my shake, she also told me she had another drink that she was introducing to the menu. It was what she called an Italian spritzer that she wanted me to try. The drink before I tasted it looked so beautiful and refreshing. I took my first sip and it took me back to when I was in Italy. The flavours were a subtle orange with hints of citrus. It was a wonderful and refreshing drink to have on a summer day. I cannot stress enough that all of you need to go here for the best in Gelato. The quality and flavor is like nothing you've ever had. Follow her on Facebook where she updates her flavors weekly. Undici is open at 4 o'clock on Fridays to close. It is also open on the weekends. Check hours before showing up. I never recommend a place without my stamp of approval. Check Undici Gelato out and you can thank me later. I rate Undici in Itasca a 9.3 out of 10.

I'm so glad I did, it was absolutely worth it! The shortcake was warm, soft, and incredibly moist. The ice cream was rich and creamy, and although the strawberries were still slightly frozen, they complemented the dessert really well. This visit completely changed my impression of the place. I left very happy and will definitely be coming back, especially while the strawberry shortcake is still in season.

A reliable Andy's location - serving up freshly made custard with a variety of delicious flavor…read morecombinations at a reasonable price. I find this spot a bit more difficult to get into than the Rand Rd location, but at the same time -- the parking seems to be easier to understand. The quality of the product is about the same as other Andy's locations though this spot does seem to take a little longer to prepare items than the Rand Rd. location. Though there is outdoor seating, there is no back support on this - so be aware if you plan to spend more than 10-15 minutes hanging out here. Also be aware that this spot opens till 11:30/12:00 which is later than most frozen treat spots, but still closes if you're coming here after a late night activity.

I tried the mint one. Outstanding. I will buy that one next time I visit. The place is fairly small and I can't speak for the selection at the beginning of the day, but what she packed was a great sample of what they offer.

That said, it definitely didn't deter me from coming back! I didn't get a chance to try the gelato this time, but there were several flavors I had my eye on. I'll definitely be back to give them a try. Overall, such a cute bakery with a great variety of treats!
